Some Bollywood Celebs Can’t Vote For The Lok Sabha Elections 2019
Some of the Bollywood celebs like Akshay Kumar, Alia Bhatt, Deepika Padukone & 4 other celebs won’t be able to vote in the ongoing Loksabha elections 2019!
The voting season is here & the month-long schedule of Lok Sabha Elections 2019 has begun. It commenced on 11th Apr, 2019 & will conclude on 19th May, 2019.
Every Indian citizen will be casting their vote for the party which they think will serve the country better. As always, B-town celebs will abide by their responsibility & vote for the right candidate too.
However, there are a handful of celebrities who won’t be able to cast their vote and we know the reason why. From Akshay Kumar, Alia Bhatt, Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif to Sunny Leone, Imran Khan & Jacqueline Fernandez, these Bollywood stars will not be able to vote in the ongoing elections & the reasons for that are:-
Well! This may come as a surprise to you but the fact is that Akshay Kumar is not eligible to vote during elections in India, mainly because, Kiladi Kumar was born in Punjab & brought up in Delhi. Still, wonder what is the reason? Well, Khiladi Kumar holds a Canadian passport & that is exactly why he hasn’t been voting for many years.
Deepika Padukone is one of the top actresses of Bollywood & her acting skills are unmatched. While we are aware of almost everything about this beauty, her birthplace is not known to many. The Padmaavat actress was born in Denmark & holds a Danish passport. Although she is brought up in Bengaluru, Deepika Padukone can’t vote in the Indian General Elections 2019.
Alia Bhatt’s mother, Soni Razdan, hails from Britain. Hence, the actress herself is a British citizen & holds the same passport. Ultimately, that means that the Raazi actress is not liable to vote in the forthcoming elections.
Katrina Kaif is an English citizen & it is a known fact. The actress has been in the industry for over a decade but she is not eligible to vote as Katrina Kaif still has a UK passport.
Sunny Leone alias Karenjit Kaur holds a Canadian passport & although she has her roots in India, the actress cannot vote.
Jacqueline Fernandez’s mother belongs to Malaysia while her father is a Sri Lankan citizen. The actress was born in Bahrain & well, these are reasons enough for her not being eligible to vote in the elections in India.
Aamir Khan’s nephew & and actor, Imran Khan, made his Bollywood debut with Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na. He was born & brought up in the United States Of America & moved to India only after his parents’ separation. So he too is not eligible for voting in the ongoing elections of Loksabha.
